Pitch Control

Page 14 highlights

Pitch Control Pitch control makes it possible to tune the Clavinova over a ±50-cent range in approximately 1.2-cent intervals. A hundred "cents" equals one semitone, so the tuning range provided allows fine tuning of overall pitch over a range of approximately a semitone. Pitch control is useful for tuning the Clavinova to match other instruments or recorded music. q Tuning Up A-1 B-1 C3 B3 Z To tune up (raise pitch), hold the A-1 and B-1 keys simultaneously. X Press any key between C3 and B3. Each time a key in this range is pressed the pitch is increased by approximately 1.2 cents, up to a maximum of 50 cents above standard pitch. C Release the A-1 and B-1 keys. q Tuning Down A#-1 A -1 C3 B3 Z To tune down (lower pitch), hold the A-1 and A#-1 keys simultane- ously. X Press any key between C3 and B3. Each time a key in this range is pressed the pitch is decreased by approximately 1.2 cents, up to a maximum of 50 cents below standard pitch. C Release the A-1 and A#-1 keys. q To Restore Standard Pitch* A#-1 A -1 B -1 C3 B3 Z To restore the default pitch (A3 = 440 Hz), hold the A-1, A#-1 and B-1 keys simultaneously. X Press any key between C3 and B3. C Release the A-1, A#-1 and B-1 keys. NOTE • The PITCH CONTROL function has no effect when LOCAL OFF is active (see "MIDI FUNCTIONS," page 17). q Memorizing the Pitch Control Setting C7 Press the C7 key while holding the A-1/B-1, A-1/A#-1, or A-1/A#-1/B-1 key combination to memorize the current pitch control setting. The memorized setting will be retained in memory for about one week after the power is turned off, then the standard pitch will be restored. To keep the memorized setting for longer periods, turn the power on briefly at least once a week. If this setting is not memorized as described above, it is retained in memory only until the Clavinova is turned off. 11
